Introduction
He couldn’t believe how soft she was.
He was gentler this time, making love to her with a slow, languorous pace, pausing now and then to check the expression on her face.
Kira was… transported.
She no longer felt the fabric of the sheets underneath her.
One moment, she was floating in the air, cuddled by cotton candy clouds.
The next, she’d become one with a dinghy, bobbing up and down with the undulating waves.
His scent enveloped her.
He was on top of her, using his arms to support his weight and avoid crushing her.
She snuggled up closer to him, safe and snug, cocooned in his warmth.
Kira had always marvelled at Austyn’s stamina, but he outdid himself tonight.
In the midst of overwhelming rapture, Kira still had the presence of mind to broach the subject she’d been meaning to bring up. ‘My dad’s medical bills…’
Austyn paused.
He frowned as he looked into those beseeching eyes.
‘It’ll be taken care of by the end of business day tomorrow,’ he said with a bit of an edge in his voice.
Kira breathed out.
She is a 21-year-old college student who dreams of becoming a journalist.
He is the heir of the McCarthy family and president of a business empire.
She is bright-eyed and vivacious, a glass-half-full kind of gal.
When life throws her a curveball, she knocks it out of the park.
He is the archetypal alpha male, aggressive and domineering.
Endowed with both brains and brawn, he steamrolls over his enemies and rules his company with an iron fist.
The two would never have crossed paths if not for a cruel twist of fate.
Kira’s world was turned upside down when her father was hospitalised after a car accident.
The medical bills were astronomical.
Austyn McCarthy offered her a way out.
The price: becoming his contract wife.
At night, he consummated their marriage but called out another woman’s name.
Who was she?
Why did Austyn marry Kira if he was in love with someone else?
Kira was his lawful wife, but she had no right to ask these questions.
Then one day, the woman showed up in front of her…
Chapter 1
It was raining again.
A flurry of raindrops pattered against the window, loud and incessant.
In the living room, the TV was on.
A gorgeous-looking news anchor flashed a flawless smile as she delivered the latest in showbiz.
‘Last night, Austyn McCarthy, scion of the McCarthy family, was spotted heading into a five-star hotel with the actress Kayleigh Woods on his arm. This is not the first time the two have been seen together, adding currency to the dating speculation. Could we expect to hear wedding bells soon? ...’
In the bedroom, two bodies were tangled together on the king-sized bed.
The man was powerfully built, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.
Drops of sweat glistened on his tanned skin as he rammed into the girl lying underneath him.
Kira stared up at Austyn as he panted and rocked his hips.
He had a face carved by angels and a jawline that most men would kill for.
His naked body, covered in a film of perspiration, shimmered in the soft light.
He pushed deeper into her.
The occasional grunt that escaped from his lips was enough to make any woman weak at the knees.
Austyn closed his eyes in the throes of passion.
And did not notice the look on Kira’s face.
It was not one of pleasure.
Kira gritted her teeth and endured his powerful thrusting.
‘Why does he always take so long? I can’t take it anymore…’
She kept that complaint to herself, too timid to voice her objection out loud.
Kira thought she was tired, but her body reacted to him and clutched him tightly.
She closed her eyes and resigned herself to his protracted punishment, biting her lips to keep herself from moaning.
It was another half an hour before Austyn finished at last.
With a final thrust, he gasped as he climaxed, his whole body convulsing with pleasure.
Kira breathed out, relieved.
Austyn pulled out of her without a word, got up from the bed and padded into the bathroom.
Soon came the sound of running water.
With some effort, Kira sat up in bed.
Moments before he came, Austyn drove himself deeper and harder into her.
The impact almost crushed her and left a dull pain in her chest.
Kira was parched, but the glass on the nightstand was empty.
She licked her lips, threw aside the cover and tried to get up.
Her legs turned to jelly as soon as she set foot on the carpet.
She had to grab a bedpost for support.
Anyone would be worn out after a two-hour marathon session in bed.
Well, anyone except Austyn.
She marvelled at the man’s stamina.
Right afterwards, Austyn had walked to the bathroom unassisted, even though he was the one who did most of the work…
Kira took several deep breaths before she mustered enough strength to shuffle into the kitchen.
She got herself a glass of water and took a grateful gulp.
On her way back to the bedroom, she hesitated.
She shuffled into the living room and curled up on the sofa, absent-mindedly watching the TV as she sipped from the glass.
A familiar name caught her attention.
‘Austyn and Kayleigh? Dating?’
The news anchor’s beautiful face was replaced with a photo onscreen.
It was a typical paparazzi shot, taken some distance away from the hotel and blurry, but it was enough to make out the two figures in the photo.
Kayleigh Woods had her arms around Austyn’s waist.
Her face was buried in his chest.
They seemed locked in a tight embrace.
Kira cast her glance to the bedroom.
The man, photographed with another woman last night, was naked in the bathroom right now, taking a shower.
Was he aware he was caught on camera?
Kira was familiar with Kayleigh’s name.
The budding actress shot to fame in the last couple of years, having a major role in several dramas that were all the rage at the moment.
Kayleigh, whose name meant ‘slender and fair,’ was stunning.
She could capture the audience’s heart with a single sultry look.
Her voluptuous figure turned heads and stole the show at any red carpet event she attended.
Men wanted her, and women wanted to be her.
Kira drank from the glass mechanically, unaware it was already empty.
A sudden peal of thunder snapped her out of her reverie.
She shook her head to clear her mind.
Austyn was insanely handsome.
Kayleigh was breath-taking.
The two of them would make a perfect match.
‘What are you doing here?’ Austyn’s deep voice startled her.
Kira straightened up reflexively.
She grabbed the remote control and switched off the TV.
‘Nothing. Just…killing time.’
Austyn wore nothing except a towel wrapped around his waist.
His hair was dripping wet.
Barefoot, he strode over to the sofa and stared fixedly at Kira.
His sharp gaze seemed to see right through her.
From her seated position, Kira was treated to the tantalising view of his sexy jawline and his Adam’s apple.
A drop of water lingered on his throat, before dripping downwards over his chiselled chest.
His thin lips were pursed.
Austyn seldom smiled.
Kira traced the outline of his lips with her eyes, distracted.
Someone once told her that thin lips in a man often indicated a ruthless nature.
Normally, she wouldn’t put much stock in physiognomy.
But that particular observation was spot on with Austyn.
He just stood there watching Kira with his searching eyes, unspeaking.
A while later, he picked up the remote control and turned the TV back on.
The lovely news anchor was back, still gushing about the hottest couple in town.
Austyn and Kayleigh.
‘Sources say Austyn has been married in secret for some time, breaking many a girl’s hearts. But now we know that’s not true, given he’s been stepping out with the delectable Kayleigh Woods. Look at that picture. The romantic vibe between the couple is unmistakable...'
Abruptly, Austyn shut off the TV and flung the remote aside.
The lamp cast a shadow over his face, making it impossible to read his expression.
Was he mad?
Or embarrassed?
Kira stole a glance at him.
She could never tell what the man was thinking.
Austyn was hardly the type to write his thoughts on his forehead.
The report had to be true, right?
No smoke without fire, as the saying went.
Austyn would have flipped out if someone dared fabricate groundless gossip about him.
At least, the tabloid got the ‘secret marriage’ part correct.
The rain stopped suddenly, plunging the room into stifling stillness.
Kira fidgeted.
She racked her brain, trying to come up with something to say.
But words failed her.
An idea struck her from nowhere.
‘If you’re going steady with her,’ she blurted out, ‘why don’t we get a divorce?’

The Biker's Fate
I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known. You're a bad boy, but when I dated a so-called good one, he turned out to be the devil, so, yeah, I don't get you because you're not what I expected. You drive me crazier than anyone I've ever met, but then you make me feel complete. I'm feeling things I don't quite know how to process and that makes me want to run. I don't want to give up something that might be really, really good, but I also don't want to be stupid and fall for a boy just because he's super pretty and makes me come."

Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

No, Matteo Accardi, Don of one of the largest gangs in New York City doesn’t do one night stands. Not with her anyway.
Mated by Contract to the Alpha
William—my devastatingly handsome, wealthy werewolf fiancé destined to become Delta—was supposed to be mine forever. After five years together, I was ready to walk down the aisle and claim my happily ever after.
Instead, I found him with her. And their son.
Betrayed, jobless, and drowning in my father's medical bills, I hit rock bottom harder than I ever imagined possible. Just when I thought I'd lost everything, salvation came in the form of the most dangerous man I'd ever encountered.
Damien Sterling—future Alpha of the Silver Moon Shadow Pack and ruthless CEO of Sterling Group—slid a contract across his desk with predatory grace.
“Sign this, little doe, and I'll give you everything your heart desires. Wealth. Power. Revenge. But understand this—the moment you put pen to paper, you become mine. Body, soul, and everything in between.”
I should have run. Instead, I signed my name and sealed my fate.
Now I belong to the Alpha. And he's about to show me just how wild love can be.
I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he’s not letting me go.
